How Koji Can Conjure Unique Flavors in Spirits To create novel flavor profiles, Western distillers are increasingly embracing a mold that is traditional in many Asian food and drink fermentations —and they’ve only begun to tap into its potential.

As I try to get back into office mode after a week in Virginia, I’m gradually catching up on everything that happened while I was away, including the publication of my latest story for #Spirits & #Distilling on use of #koji in the production of #spirits

Woodcut from the frontispiece of a 1518 distilling book. The image shows a woman standing in front of a large still. She is holding a bellows fanning the flames under the container as distillate drips into a glass bottle on the right. A number of bottles are lined up on a shelf in the background.

Going away from food for today, a 1547 recipe for #distilling a spice-flavoured schnaps to strengthen the heart

Five bottles of aged cherry Eau de Vie.

This is as good as my Eau de Vie will ever get, I think. It's like cherry vanilla ice cream with a hint of oak.

In addition to making chacha, a Georgian spirit, I'd like to try to make whiskey. I was reading a little about what corn to use so I can try to figure out if the corn varieties grown in Georgia would be suitable.

I also just discovered that popcorn can be used to make whiskey!

Next Wave Awards Distiller of the Year: Leslie Merinoff Kwasnieski Typically, when a craft distiller attempts to make every spirit, none of them turn out especially well. It’s the classic jack of all trades, master of none. And the logic is simple: Try to appease every demographic — bourbon taters, vodka fans, tequila connoisseurs, rum nerds — and no one ends up truly satisfied. Then there’s Matchbook Distilling, with its dazzling array of spirits and more — all created by Leslie Merinoff Kwasnieski.

Ask a Distiller: What’s the Difference Between Sweet Mash and Sour Mash Whiskey? Whiskey is a product of several crucial decisions that impact both style and flavor. Choices like the base grain, barrel selection, and how long the liquid ages are all relatively self-explanatory. But the difference between using a sweet mash or a sour mash might not be as easy to grasp. The terms aren’t totally unfamiliar — Jack Daniel’s famously stamps “sour mash” front and center on its iconic flagship bottle — but what they are and how they influence the whiskey is a bit esoteric. So what exactly does sweet or sour mean in this context? The article Ask a Distiller: What’s the Difference Between Sweet Mash and Sour Mash Whiskey? appeared first on VinePair.

How the ‘95/5’ Rye Mash Bill Went From MGP Signature to Craft Staple In the early days of the 21st century’s American whiskey renaissance, as a slew of new rye brands arrived on the scene, seemingly out of nowhere, savvy drinkers learned a quick and easy way to determine who was actually distilling their “juice” and who had sourced it from somewhere else: Check to see if the mash bill was 95 percent rye and 5 percent malted barley.

I know it's basic, but in going with strawberry OR cinnamon frosted poptarts as giving the best end result.

Maybe somebody who knows more about #distilling could answer this with greater care and consideration.

The thread about Castlehill School; educating the city’s children, its bakers and its tourists for over a century The third chapter of our series looking at the "Lost Board Schools of Edinburgh" covers Castlehill School, which for half a century taught the children of the Old Town and pioneered new fronts in education. After closure it spent over three decades in search of a permanent purpose - eventually being turned over to a very different sort of education
